As sung by "a mighty wind" but written by Brian Wilson. This song doesn't fall into the usual surf sounds that the beach boys were known for but it is a reminder for things that can or could happen.

[@danzoingo]

You are life changing

[@cathywaurick9618]

My son.... so talented....so kind....I'm so proud!

[@bethelwert-voelker6589]

He's an incredible guy!!!❤

[@MrTasselhof]

You have raised a phenomenal human being on all fronts. Talent and Person! Thank you Momma Waurick!

[@stankido9463]

You should be! Yes! He is so incredibly gifted and talented! I marvel at all of Tim’s postings!

[@Spartacus822]

Yes, you should be, Mom!

[@gngrkid1928]

Mom Waurick!! Your son is an incredible performer and truly an inspiration across generations.

[@MarkHenley-h7t]

Absolutely beautiful, Tim. I had tears in my eyes when I saw and heard your performance of this moving song! No wonder Paul McCartney has said that it is the best song of all time! Mark Henley, baritone with Novatones Harmony Chorus, Newcastle NSW Australia.

[@ZanethMedia]

This song changed my life. It’s what introduced me to barbershop in high school. My second year of college I became part of a quartet. I haven’t done enough since then but my love for the craft never died. Thank you for continuing, contributing, and improving the art form of barbershop harmony, Tim.

[@myboyJOSHUA]

NO WAY! This was the song that got me into Barbershop! Thanks for doing this cover, Tim. (I also like your original cover on your album)

[@JulianChristopher_music]

Omg absolutely SAME dude

[@I-am-Josh]

Same! God only knows where I'd be without it

[@Smeagolroth]

This song also got me into barbershop! I was able to get a group to sing it in college too! Well done!

[@rachelblaquiere9134]

Same!

[@bobrob8839]

This is just outstanding. The entire bioshock series is amazing, and when the quartet appeared singing this song in the beginning of Infinite, it set the stage for what would be one of video games' greatest twist endings. So so well done, Tim. Bravo!

[@Gnahtte]

I've completed the whole BioShock series twice. The music is such a mood and you do it a great service.

[@Mp3Charlie]

One of my all time favourite arrangements, and a lovely bright and warm performance. Love it!

[@stephaneg.8142]

Bravo c'est sûrement le genre d'arrangement vocal qu'auraient fait les BB s'ils avaient commencé leur carrière au xxi siècle. Très bien interprété, un plaisir.

[@alleycatcannabis]

There's always a lighthouse ❤️ Your voice (and eyes) shine so bright

[@chrisn676]

My then-girlfriend, now wife, got me "Bioshock Infinite" for our first Valentines' Day together. (There's a reason she's my wife now.) This is the third piece of music you hear in the game, but it's the first to draw attention to itself, and it sets the stage for what you're about to experience: not just the deliberate anachronism of a 1960s song rendered in 1910s-era barbershop, but the fact that the arrangement itself is IMMACULATE. Director Ken Levine spared no expense in bringing his vision for the game to life, and in doing so created not only one of the greatest video games of all time, but also my favorite barbershop chart ever. And then Tim covers it! I can think of very, very few things that have made me happier than this 2 minutes and 52 seconds.

[@TimWaurickMusic]

Thank you for sharing your incredible story 🥹!

[@susankelly9472]

Thanks!

[@TimWaurickMusic]

Thank you for your support Susan!

[@thestephenreynolds]

Love this chart! Thanks for posting and singing it so well!!!

[@YoshiElder]

Tim never fails to make my day better with his crisp, beautiful chords! Keep up the good work and know that you have an impact!

[@electricmike42]

I have goose bumps all over. What an AMAZING version..... Thank You for reminding me life is beautiful❤

[@ApothecaryAlyth]

Great cover as always, Tim. And good on Clay Hine for being inducted into the Hall of Fame. Well deserved! I'd love to hear FRED do a recording of this song; I can practically hear it in their voices.

[@critbard]

THIS BRINGS ME SO MUCH JOY. One of my all time favorite video game musical moments. Thank you for your gift!

[@jguevarar95]

One of my favourite games ever. Thank you so much for this. Takes me back to when I first played in PS3 so many years ago. Thank you this is really amazing

[@barbkeil-burton6894]

Hi Tim... 😊You Got Such a Beautiful Voice & A Handsome Face With Pretty Blue Eyes!! I Truly Love Your Singing of the Barbershop Harmony!! 🎶 I Wish You the Best!!😍 Have a Wonderful Evening!!❤ Love Barb from Central Illinois❣

[@dri588]

One of the most beautiful beach boys songs (and songs in general) arranged by a legend and sung by one the the most beautiful voices.

[@EricOakes]

One of the best songs ever written, sung by one of the best voices out there. Thank you for this!

[@klaut63]

I loved when we sang that song in the AOH all those years ago. Became my favorite Brian Wilson song ever. Your talent astounds me each and every time I hear you sing my friend.

[@ChanceAndTheBois]

Never thought I’d see Tim do a video game song! Well done!

[@HarbingerOfSound]

The song that actually got me into barbershop! Heard it while playing the game and was like “hold on I’d probably like this type of music”.

[@cocoskiwatnot]

never fails to impress, always honoured to use your tracks.

[@adamcampbell8056]

Absolutely beautiful Tim. This rendition of the song put a tear in my eye. Thank you for this.

[@ProtonVGC]

I don't think I have ever heard a better version of this song than this. Awesome video (as always, I love seeing a new Tim upload). +1

[@lynnfrank5462]

Tim, now you’ve done it! You’ve given me Bridge Over Troubled Water AND God Only Knows? I’m beyond thrilled! Your beautiful tone! Oh my gosh! You really are perfection times four. I had so many goosies, I got cold! 😂 Thank you, thank you, for this absolutely wonderful Brian Wilson song. If it’s Tuesday, it must be TimDay! ✨✨✨✨ ♥️

[@quinnlikeswater9592]

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH. when i first played through the game, i just sat next next to the quartet and listened. Im glad they made an actual arrangement instead of picking some stereotypical barbershop song. Thanks for multitracking!!

[@cartermartin8582]

I absolutely love this arrangement and you sang it so spectacularly like usual!! Such fantastic colours!

[@gamerboy-ul5ii]

Bro, this is a warm welcome for me. TBH, i forgot about this channel, for 6 or 7 months, cause i am focus on my life, that I forgot about you, thanks for bringing me back. I lost, but now. I'M FOUND!

[@jennybee2429]

I found you from SB Mowing and glad I did, I really like your singing and appreciate that you add the music and words so we can all sing along.

[@michaelweinberg698]

Tim, this was a SUPERB arrangement, sung only as you could perform it! A beautiful song with a beautiful message, sung masterfully. And, the classic barbershop tag at the end really brought it home. All of your fans “only know” how fortunate we are to have your gifted performances. p.s.- great AIC show! Vocal Spectrum was, as always, outstanding and your spotlight solo was a real highlight for the show! Bravo!

[@JoyfulNoise2424]

Amazing Tim! I watched the AIC livestream on Friday, and Vocal Spectrum ROCKED it! Great job!

[@TreyBruceable]

Clay did a great job with this one, and your performance is wonderful!

[@J_Telecaster]

Bravo! Better with headphones. I got chills! 👏🏼

[@mindfulmomentswithColm]

Breath deeply this one touches the heart

[@JC-un1br]

Week one of kindly asking for your recent TimTracks to be put on Spotify! Great tag as always!

[@davidsmoker5608]

Wow!! Well done.

[@NuggetEternal]

I've never played Bioshock but I know that melody anywhere. A Beach Boys classic!

[@BABSollie]

So clean Tim! You always brighten up a Tuesday!

[@nickf4564]

Honestly I've always preferred this version of God only knows. So thank you for perfecting it!

[@rickrosenblum3568]

Your vocals are always so perfect. When you record, I would be curious to know which part you record first, second and so on.

[@dalelynn9433]

What a great tempo for that song...I kept waiting for it to speed up and it never did. Just an amazing rendition!!

[@AbysmalEnd]

OMG!!! Just started playing this game again and told my wife "Imagine if Tim did this it would be amazing" hahahah Thank you so much!

[@athetenth]

I FORGOT IT WAS TUESDAY LETS GOOOOOO

[@crazyfingers1925]

[@Mrbriar]

It's a shame they never one. I always enjoyed a mighty wind. Poor bill grogans goat.

[@stevenarmstrong5618]

Loved this one! I’ve been secretly hoping you’d do this one for a while, and it makes me super happy to finally hear it! Thanks a lot, and looking forward to next Tuesday! Have a good day!

[@loszhor]

Well done!

[@Mrbriar]

I've been waiting for this one:)

[@dylan1kenobi]

Stunning stuff! I always knew this arrangement had potential and absolutely loved your performance of it!! Gotta buy these learning tracks asdfg

[@LemonxSlayer]

Amazing. Makes me want to drop everything, grab three other guys, and ring out this beach boys barbershop banger.

[@LeFebvreCS06]

So awesome! Made my day! Thank you Tim!

[@leesperry7288]

Facing the biggest challenge ever in my life right now and this hit every nerve in a massive way, especially the intro. It's a question I'm asking myself an awful lot at the moment. Thank you, Tim.

[@zipzzo]

There's always your close friends and family to lean on! Everything is gonna be awesome, especially if you've got some barbershop to listen to!

[@I-am-Josh]

One of my favourite games of all time, this brings a huge smile to my face! Great stuff Tim 😊

[@pasketti2404]

obsessed with how all the E majors lock

[@singinlincoln]

Amazing, Tim. Thanks again for the gift of music.

[@raphaelpierroz8931]

Very good, Thanks Tim

[@susankelly9472]

Love Tim's music 🎉

[@fargo007]

Really stellar man. Great work.

[@simonlevy00]

[@ShellacScrubber]

Absurdly good !!

[@CorazonDesignsandstories]

Wow!!! Are you serious? This is outstanding ❤❤❤👌👌👌✅✅✅

[@fairlyincomplete]

Thank Brian Wilson, who composed the song. Nice job once again Tim!

[@MookRyan]

I love this!!!! ❤️

[@ikennaeze4162]

G natural bar 31 beat 1 in the lead part mate

[@shawnfurl4854]

I believe I have the learning tracks for this song done by another singer! Always nice to see one that I know

[@bradyschoch7562]

You know what, Tim! You're so right! What WOULD I be wothout you?

[@proxima_alpha]

perfect

[@mr.spray85]

Bring us the girl, and wipe away the debt…

[@cl3matis]

oh, I never expected Tim to do BioShock! on the subject of video games, can I ask for "A Quick Break" from Cuphead? originally by Shoptimus Prime :D

[@kurt9315]

Subscribed!

[@richsaborsky5398]

Hi Tim, This is Jesse Saborsky's dad, sounds great! Tell your parents that I said Hi!

[@NoHomerS]

This one is tough to learn! So chromatic 😮

[@MichaelLiningMusic]

LOvE

[@tims4887]

Did Hine really write this whole thing in A? It visits a few tonalities including A, but it's mostly in E.

[@djharris90]

It makes me laugh that the Beach Boys or Jan and Dean aren't in the title but a video game name is 😂

[@jayblueguy9932]

The reminds me of Batman

[@Simon-oz1pz]

Is the full song available with learning tracks? I couldn’t find it on your timtracks website

[@TimWaurickMusic]

It will take me some time to add it, but certainly in the near future!

[@lollipopjuggs]

Who sung it in the game?

[@Archimedesu]

I always stopped to listen to these guys in every play-through. Great rendition

[@JdotCarver]

For some reason the original version is so rushed, and it's distracting! I much prefer your slowed down pace.

[@JulianChristopher_music]

Dude... Like wtf 😂 You're range is unfair...!

[@bradyschoch7562]

You know what, Tim! You're so right! What WOULD I be wothout you?
